Now I want to share them with all of you so they are on record relative to the Coral Mountain Wave Park. Thank you for your continued attention to this most important matter. Bobbie Fleury 81586 Desert Willow Dr. To the members of the La Quinta Planning Commission: My name is Bobbie Fleury and I am an 18 year resident of Trilogy. Rather than talk today about the bits and pieces of the EIR, I'd prefer to concentrate on one major aspect of the 1 of 2 5/30/22, 10:46 AM Firefox https://outlook.office.com/mail/deeplink?Print proposed planned Coral Mountain development, and life as it currently is in this corner of the city. I'm referring to the aesthetic quality of our area. I've thought for years that we sit so far from everything, but that's actually a double-edged sword. Yes, we do, but we have a peaceful, serene, beautiful place to call home. City staff and Council seem to feel that this project will have "no significant impact" on the surrounding area. How can that be? If this zoning request change for a tourist/commercial site were to happen, that would forever alter the culture, the feel, the tenure, of the place where so many people live. All around us, from Ave. 50 to Ave. 60, from Madison to Monroe, it's low -density, single story residential. A change of zoning, such as what has been requested, would be a slap in the face to thousands of residents. We will derive NO benefit from this project, since it's for PRIVATE usage. Yet, it will affect our quality of life forever. Once that Pandora's box is open, there's no going back. And then what's next — a gas station and drive-thru eatery? Changing the zoning to tourist/commercial just isn't compatible with all that is currently built, and what is planned to be built, in this southwest corner of La Quinta. I know that money talks. But it's time to back down this developer and deny this zoning change request. I respectfully ask that, before you make a decision, you go home; step back; look in the mirror; and ask yourself "Is this really what we should be doing in our city, and to our residents." Thank you for your time and attention. 2 of 2 5/30/22, 10:46 AM
